Aims: To provide students with an in depth analysis of strategic change and how to utilize transformative, transactional and directive techniques. The focus of this aim is on the implication of change on the work force rather than on the process and structure of the organization. Students will understand the dynamics of change, particularly as it relates to the real and perceived threats and how to respond while maintaining organizational and mission consistency.
Outcomes: Upon completion of this input the student will:
- Know the difference between transformational,
transactional, and command and control leadership styles
- Be able to identify and utilize the most appropriate
leadership style to facilitate change
- Be able to distinguish the difference between micro and
macro elements of change
- Be able to utilize skills to reduce apathy and “change
thinking”
